JAKARTA - Inter Milan and president Steven Zhang donated 100 thousand euros for research on COVID-19 or the corona virus. The Nerazzurri donated to the Department of Biomedical and Clinical Sciences at Sacco Hospital, Milan to help fight the outbreak.
This was done when the corona caused chaos after Serie A and all other sporting events in Italy were confirmed to take place behind closed doors until April 3. The last two weeks, the Serie A match and the midweek Coppa Italia semifinals were even canceled.
Several Serie A matches have been postponed over the past two weeks, including the Derby d'Italia between Juve and Inter, which was scheduled to take place last Sunday.
The Coppa Italia semi-final second leg between Inter and Napoli and Juventus and Milan, which was originally scheduled to take place on Wednesday and Thursday has also been postponed.
The Press Agency for the Italian National Association (ANSA) reported that the government would implement measures to cancel all sporting events for 30 days, even though football matches may not yet be allowed to take place behind closed doors.
"Inter have an inseparable bond with the city of Milan and are proud of the dedication with which all the staff of Sacco Hospital are facing an extraordinary situation," said President Steven Zhang. Launch Soccerway, March 5.
